Scarce, youthful 8x10-inch black and white portrait, boldly signed and inscribed in black fountain pen in the early 1980s. In good condition, with very minor handling dings. Natalie Schafer, unforgettable character actress of the stage and screen, excelled at playing society women or elegant, fashionable elitists, most memorably Eunice "Lovey" Wentworth Howell on T.V.'s "Gilligan's Island" (1964-1967).  Her many other film and T.V. credits include the fantasy flicks The Body Disappears (1941) and Wonder Man (1945), the underrated James Cagney gem The Time of Your Life (1948), The Snake Pit (1948), and Anastasia (1956).
